Abstract
A system and computer program product for using a multi-user operating system. A user attempts to access the multi-user operating system. The system prompts the user to enter a shared credential associated with the multi-user operating system and an individual credential of the user. The system verifies the entered shared credential and the entered individual credential. The system grants the access to the user if both the entered shared credential and the entered individual credential are verified. The system tracks commands entered by the user granted the access via the entered shared credential while the user is using the multi-user operating system. The tracked commands indicate the entered individual credential.
